What you'll shell out to see the Stanley Cup Final

Games 3 and 4 of the Chicago Blackhawks-Tampa Bay Lightning Stanley Cup Final at the United Center are on pace to be two of the most expensive Blackhawks games ever, according to secondary ticket marketplace SeatGeek.com.

As of this morning, the average price of all tickets resold through the site to tonight's Game 3 is $1,009, while the average price for Game 4 on June 10 is $1,197.

Both of those averages are higher than any Blackhawks home playoff game from the 2013 Stanley Cup Final against the Boston Bruins. Game 5 of that series set the high mark at an average of $975, according to SeatGeek.

While neither team can clinch the Cup in Game 4, that game likely will set a new mark as the priciest Hawks game in SeatGeek's database, which dates to 2010. Game 5 of the 2010 Stanley Cup Final against the Philadelphia Flyers currently holds that title at $1,036.

UPPER VS. LOWER DECK

Sitting in the lower bowl of the United Center for either of the next two games will cost you more than twice as much as sitting in the 300 level.

SeatGeek's data show that the average seat in the 100 level along the sidelines has sold for $2,023—about three times their face value—for Games 3 and 4 compared with an upper-bowl average of $850.

Lower-level seats behind the goals have resold for an average of $1,811, nearly tripling the $681 average that fans have paid for upper-level seats behind the goals.

Standing-room-only tickets for the next two games have sold for an average of $361 at SeatGeek. Face value for tickets to stand inside the arena is $140.

Asking prices for tickets have been dropping since the series began (typical as a game approaches) by an average of 25 percent at SeatGeek to a median listing price of $784.

The site's cheapest seat listed as of this morning for tonight's game was $512 to sit in the third-to-last row of Section 307. The cheapest listing for a standing-room-only ticket was $273.

The Blackhawks and the Lightning split the first two games of the series and drop the puck on Game 3 at 7 p.m.
